Meet Morgan! Morgan joined us a few months ago, bringing a refreshing presence to our salon as she assists with phone duties, dog bathing, client check-ins, and maintaining organization. Her enthusiasm has been a game-changer for our team. After reviewing numerous applications and conducting multiple tele-interviews, I had narrowed down my search, but Morgan's follow-up call showcased her exceptional communication skills, composed demeanor, and genuine passion for the role, sealing her position on our team. I'm grateful for that call! Morgan's upbringing on a Missouri farm, where her family raised service dogs and farm animals, has instilled in her a deep affection for animals. Her experiences in mission work in Belize, serving in New York, and being a newlywed, have shaped her compassionate nature. We feel blessed to have Morgan on board, and her heart for animals has made her an invaluable addition to our team. If you see Morgan, be sure to say hello! 🥰😊 PS My drawer of equipment has never been more organized. 😀

😊Happy petting. It’s good for us both.

Think all petting feels good to your dog? Not even close. Science shows a lot of what we call affection is actually overstimulation. Slow it down. Your dog doesn’t want a drum solo on their head. Slow strokes equal calm, fast pats equal stress.

A new peer-revied study surveying dog and cat owners looked at how touch relates to pet wellbeing and found clear differences between species. For dogs, gentle petting had the biggest positive impact, especially slow, calm stroking along the chest, shoulders, and sides. The more time and physical contact, the better, with added benefits when dogs lean on their owners or sleep close by. This type of touch mimics natural social grooming and helps reduce stress while promoting relaxation. In contrast, owner-initiated petting didn’t have the same effect in cats. What mattered more was cat-initiated contact, particularly head rubbing, also known as bunting. Gentle touch can improve wellbeing, but only when it aligns with the animal’s natural behavior and comfort level. Takeaway: If your dog leans into you, relaxes, or closes their eyes, you’re doing it right, if they pull away or get restless, adjust pressure or location.

Roscoe came to see us today. Love this guy and his Mom and Dad too. 😊 I’ve taken care of all their dogs for 34 years now. He was a rescue who hit the jackpot.
